M. C. East Major-Tenney Park THE Fritz Brews moved back into I first place in the Minor league last night, partially by its 6-5 victory over the Phillipsdisputed, team and partially because of the Beil Typewriters' 3-2 win over the Young' Men's club that dropped that team from a first place tie. A fight betwen Fritz Brews and PhillipsSchenley players marred that game.

The Fritz Brews' victory came at the expense of several disputed decisions. The losers out-hit their rivals, 12-7. The controversies began first when a long henley drive to left field was ruled foul when it would otherwise have produced two runs. The ultimate victors led 3-2 going into the seventh, and there more trouble broke out. After the Brews added three runs to build their advantage to 6-2, the Phillips-Schenley squad for its last turn at bat.

Joe Heifer hit safely and Bud Byrne singled to put runners on first and second. Karberg forced Heifer at third, but Beyler rapped a double to right field to score Byrne and Karberg. Pete Ponti singled scoring Beyler. Leslie then hit to the infield for the second out of the game, and Ponti, attempting to score the tying run, was called out at home. The decision gave rise to a heated argument which culminated in fisticuffs.

The defeat was costly for the Y. M. dropping it out of a tie with the Fritz Brews for first place. The winning run was scored after Murphy hit safely with two out in the sixth, and covered the distance on an error made when Slotten rapped a drive through the Y. M.

C. infield. Both Steve Chiovero and Denny Murphy pitched air tight ball; each gave four hits. Two errors were made by the Y. M.

Prior to Oakey's hit Spoo Stephan had produced four runs on an assortment of three hits in the third to take a 4 to 1 lead which was good until the last of the fourth when Klongland, Thompson and Klemstine scored for the Armature Bearing to tie the count.

'34 Bat Stars Suffer Severe Slump in '34 Only 7 of Last Year's Top 20 Hitting Over .300 CHICAGO-(P)-If it keeps up, 1935 will be known in major league baseball as the massacre year of big shot batting averages. How come and why, not even the victims themselves can say. The general slump of the batting stars is of the game's greatest mysteries. A checkup today showed that out of the 20 batting leaders of the 1934 season, 10 in each of the major circuits, only seven were batting above the .300 mark as the season entered eighth week of play. So great was the general decline in their batting averages that, as a group, they were batting 1,009 points less than they were at the conclusion of last year's campaign.

In the American league, they were shy 44.6 points per man; in the National league, the decline averaged 56.3. Only three of last year's leaders today had batting averages in excess of last year's marks. They were Joe Vosmik of Cleveland, who is batting .348 today as compared with his final mark of .341 last year; Jimmie Foxx of the Athletics, a .334 batter last year and a .362 batter today, and Arkie Vaughan of Pittsburgh, who is batting .399 today 66 points higher than his 1934 mark. Lou Gehrig of the Yankees won the American league batting championship last year with a rousing average of .363. But today, his average stood at .275.

Paul Waner, National league batting champion last year at .362, was batting .304. Al Simmons of the White Sox was anothed noted victim, batting only .262 with a third team today as compared with a finishing mark of .344 with a last place club in '34. And so it went down the line of the batting greats with Samson Pool of the Cincinnati Reds the greatest suffered of them all. Pool batted .327 for the Reds last year. Today his average was .176.

The average of "Pinky" Higgins of the Athletics was off from .330 to .211. batting rampage to produce a 9 to 1 win over the Gardner Bakery. barbers collected 13 hits on Earl Riley, Gardner pitcher, while the losers could do no better than collect four on Hughes.

DRAMA STAGE: SCREEN IN MADISON By STERLING SORENSEN NIGHT AT THE RITZ," A now at the Capitol, is a brisk farce about a publicity man (William Gargan), the girl he loves (Patricia Ellis), her brother (Eric Rhodes), whom Gargan bills as Leopold, cook extraordinary, and about the uproar which follows when it is learned that the great Leopold can't even cook an egg. Allen Jenkins is the wry faced chief taster, Dorothy Tree is Kiki, chief trouble maker, and Gordon Wescott is the columnist of this incredible farce, which in 1 the main is fast and entertaining. COOKLESS COOK Mr. Gargan is a high-pressure but irresponsible exploitation man for a hotel.

Getting a taste of the home cooking done by the mother of Miss Ellis, and thinking it is the cuisine of her broth er, Rhodes, who has about being grand chef, Gargan proceeds to sell Rhodes to the PO DA Ritz hotel as 1 a famous foreign MOVIEMETER chef. When the time comes for Rhodes his stuff, the day is saved partly by luck partly by the callthnd ing in of his mother to do the actual cooking in the hotel kitchen. Gargan does a breezy, job in "A Night, at the opportunities. Ritz," Jenkins the helps part the has film as the dumb-faced cab driver Gargan, who is made chief taster the Rhodes' concoctions.

PARKWAY Though not very original in story, "Tomorrow's Youth," currently at the Parkway, is based on appealing.

John Miljan, Gloria Shea and Martha Sleeper help out Master Moore to make the film a good, human interest story.

Players Portray Unionist Fight, Fear of Fascism BY J. PAUL O'BRIEN (Of The Capital Times Staff) The struggle and drama of the life of the union laborer, his fight against company unions, and the threat of Fascism as represented by Huey Long, Father Coughlin and William Randolph Hearst were vividly portrayed in a series of dramatic sketches presented by the Brookwood Labor players before more than 200 persons in the Central high school auditorium last night. Without any real scenery and with only the blue shirts and overalls of the laborer for costumes, the players, students at the Brookwood Labor college at Katonah, N.

injected their plea for unionization into almost every line. Attack "New Deal" The plays and mass recitations, written and directed by the workers themselves, contained many pointed barbs concerning the New Deal, Roosevelt labor dispute boards, war, company union elections, and the "machine age" in general. Perhaps the most effective presentation was a mass recitation, "Machine," in which the machine was shown to be a terrifying, powerful God, crushing men. The troupe of 17 players shouted the concluding plea in this production for workers to arise, to take and own the machines, and make them serve man. Story of Auto Workers "Model 7-A," the opening presentation, was the story of the fight of automobile workers to organize and effectively carry on strike.

It was written by Esther Levine and George Nordstrum, Kenosha, Nash plant employe, both members of the troupe. The play satirized the government's efforts to mediate labor disputes, stressing that labor's only real weapon is the strike. Huey Long, Hitler, Father Coughlin, William Randolph Hearst and representative big business was attacked in the puppet show, "Who's Hooey?" Long was pictured as the future American dictator and Hearst's fight against the "reds" was described as a mere sham to hide a Fascist movement. Recitation Against War "Uncle Sam Wants You" was mass recitation against war. Wisconsin members of the troupe were Nordstrum, Rose Berkhardt, Green Bay, and John Strobel, Milwaukee.

Roy Reuther, field representative of Brookwood college, was master of ceremonies. New Glarus Girl Will Wed Brooklyn Man NEW GLARUS, Wis. June Klassy, daughter of Henry Klassy, New Glarus, and Walter Blumer to be married today at the Reformed church, elleville. Mr. and Mrs.
